But, still at http://www.sttiggywinkles.org.uk/ in stating "It is fine
to supplement the hedgehog's natural diet of snails and slugs...."
seems to propogate the alledged myth (according to
http://www.thehedgehog.co.uk/diet.htm
that slugs and snails are so natural a diet for them.

actually if you look a little more closely at the site it does cover diet
although nothing like as closely as a naturalist would
What does the Hedgehog eat naturally?
The hedgehog is carnivorous and, in the wild, lives on a diet of beetles,
earthworms and other invertebrates.

( note no mention of snails or slugs though nor other less savory items
sheeps afterbirth various roadkills which I have seen the beasties tucking
into ) and yes the little beggars do knick left over dog food in the garden
